imaginations from the other side (demo version) - Blind Guardian

[Originally released in 1995 on the album "Imaginations From The Other Side"]
[Music by Hansi Kürsch and André Olbrich, Lyrics by Hansi Kürsch]
[Demo recording.]
Where are these silent faces? (You ought to know.)
I took them all away. (And now you're all alone.)
Turned out every light so deep in me.
Hold on, too late.
May I ever see them back again?
Or did they all die by my hand?
Or were they killed by the old evil ghost
Who had taken, taken
The ocean of all my dreams
Which were worth to keep
Deep inside my heart.
I wish I could get them back
From the everflow,
Back before I leave.
Imaginations from the other side.
(You would get answers, but there's none to find.)
Imaginations from the other side.
(You would get answers, but there's none to find.)
Out of the dark, into to the light.
And I will need myself (to) find back my heart.
Imaginations from the other side.
[Solo]
Where's the ocean's daughter?
Sends Peter Pan in Mordor.
No one's there to keep alive,
No one's there to keep alive.
No one's there to keep alive all these fairy tales.
May I return to Oz? Will I meet the "Tin Man"?
"Coward Lion", where are you?
And the scarecrow without brain will be lost without the key.
(Stranded in the real world.)
Lost in a world of inquisition. Lonesome path.
I've fallen through
Like all the others did before.
Why did I fail?
(I'll) never know
If Merlin did exist, or Frodo wore the Ring.
Did Corum kill the gods? Or where's the wonderland
Which young Alice had seen, or was it just a dream?
I knew the answers, now they're lost for me.
Imaginations from the other side...
[Solo]
I hope there is a way back with my talisman.
So I look into myself
To the days when I was just a child.
Come follow me to Wonderland,
And see the tale that never ends.
Don't fear the lion nor the witch.
And I can't come back
I'm lost.
And still I know there is another world.
Imaginations from the other side...
